Pantera

​

Finished this awhile ago, but haven't had the chance to upload it. My dad's been having some medical issues and I've been running around a lot more on my days off.



The kit is one I just happened to have pop up in my suggestions on eBay. It looked like a good kit and I wanted a good representation of the car for my collection, so I decided to go ahead and purchase the kit. It was a pretty simple kit, but it looks great........for the most part. There was one flaw that you will see in my pictures. Still it came out looking pretty good. I went with the early version of the car before they started trying to make them look flashy.

Looks great but I was confused by the title for a second there.

Great looking build of a car you don't see much! Love the color, it's perfect for a Pantera. What did you use for paint?

Also I hope things go well with your Father

Just standard Testors yellow.  Hobby Lobby doesn't carry much anymore. 

Dad is doing a lot better than the other day, but it's still been rough and he's still got a long way to recover.  If he ever does fully recover.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Mine has been pretty weak for a couple years now. Hope yours can recover!!

Great looking Pantera. Love the color you chose. Looks awesome.

Really nicely done. A car that I've always wanted to test drive.
